4This show may be a DenserAndWackier version of ''WesternAnimation/ThePowerpuffGirls'', but it is sure to have at least a few sad moments here and there.

10
11* Anytime Bubbles cries.
12** Whenever Blossom cries is also slightly sad. Whenever her bow droops due to sadness is is a bit poignant too.
13* The fact that Donny [[DisappearedDad doesn't have a father]] is sad enough on its own, although his mother has a "boyfriend", that may or may not be his biological father.
14* Bliss. Between her backstory, and being manipulated twice (by Him and the Sporde), she has her share of sad moments. Also whenever she has to leave and say goodbye to her family.

25[[AC: Bye Bye Bellum]]

31* The scene where Buttercup and Bubbles is showing off their aura powers to other kids. Another kid asks Blossom if she has aura powers too, but before Blossom can answer, Buttercup says this:
32-->'''Buttercup''': So what if she hasn't gotten her new powers yet and might never get them?! ''[her words echo, and the camera zooms closer in on Blossom's sad face as they do]''
33-->'''Blossom''':''[dejectedly]'' I gotta go. I'll see you guys at home.
34-->''[Buttercup looks worriedly towards Bubbles, looking as if she regrets what she said]''
35** Right after this happens, Blossom flies down the street in the rain while sad music plays, and sees things that remind her of her mediocrity, and finally [[BreakTheCutie breaks down]] when she looks in a mirror and it breaks. The bow on her head even [[ExpressiveAccessory droops]].

53-->'''Buttercup:''' I thought you were a nice person!
